New atlas_standalone scene/script: attach-or-spawn boot (one REAL
connect_to_sim attempt at SR_PORT-or-9876 — a separate throwaway TCP
probe was proven by live run to kill a pre-accept-loop server via
broken handshake pipe; never abandon a connected socket), else spawn
--port 0 via new ServerProcess.start_with_pipe + LISTENING:{port}
stdout parse, retry against the resolved port. Reader role wired end
to end: protocol.encode_startup_message optional role param (empty
omits the wire key — byte-identical for all existing callers),
sim_bridge.connection_role suppresses the post-handshake
RequestAllSettings auto-send, hud_groups skips AutoPause/AutoResume
sends for readers (all three would otherwise burn Reader violation
strikes per the T-1130 matrix — endorsed by Oscar).
Generic implant host per D-254 SS3: the shell instantiates ALL
registered implant apps; implant_app_manifest gains
available_in_companion (opt-out, default true) and
implant_registry.instantiate_all a standalone filter param (default
preserves hud.gd behavior byte-identically). Boot order is
instantiate_all THEN open_app (reverse renders a permanently black
window — app_changed fires with no listener; matches hud.gd's order).
Owned-server lifecycle: _exit_tree stops a spawned child, attached
servers survive companion close. Known engine limitation documented:
raw SIGTERM bypasses all Godot notifications and orphans a spawned
server; WM close paths verified clean.
Live-verified: spawn-mode (301 systems rendered from systems.db over
the wire), attach-mode, two simultaneous readers, clean shutdown with
zero orphan processes. 14 new gdUnit tests (port/LISTENING parsing).

New SR_LIVE sandbox scene: CharacterVisual composited in a 3D greybox world
derived from server snapshots. Per-leg constant-velocity interpolation keyed
to the stance throttle, 'server feet / client eyes' facing (wire octant while
moving, client aim octant idle), cadence-synced gait state machine on
AnimationPlayer custom blends, D-148 orthographic follow camera (-30deg
default, T-cycle presets), sim-space grid shader, camera-side wall cutaway,
accumulating never-evict tile store with four-state visibility tint.
Additive seams only: InputMapper.facing_angle_provider (2D path unchanged),
CharacterVisual.play_animation blend_time param + get_animation_player().
Visual harness gains per-scenario scene field + SR_AUTOPILOT input scripting.
210 new gdUnit assertions across five suites; verified live (230/230 total,
clean smoke, screenshot at .cache/screenshots/locomotion_idle_live.png).

Relocates main_menu, character_creation, settings_dialog, debug_console,
bug_report_dialog, loading_screen from flat client/ui/ into structured
client/ui/meta/screens/<name>/. All six now extend MetaScreen instead
of Control; the base handles open/close lifecycle, visibility,
captures_input, and — for overlays — the sim-pause contract.
Screen policies set per Tyre's proposal:
- settings_dialog: pauses_sim=false, PUSHES onto MetaStack
- debug_console: pauses_sim=true, PUSHES (D-088 routing via base)
- bug_report_dialog: pauses_sim=true, PUSHES
- loading_screen: closable_by_escape=false, PUSHES
- main_menu, character_creation: scene-roots, extend MetaScreen for
the lifecycle contract only, do NOT push onto the stack
character_creation stays at its current surface (tabs, descriptor,
creation_confirmed signal unchanged). Tab consolidation and
CharacterProfile migration happen in Workstreams 5 and 6.
Knock-on changes:
- main.tscn ModalLayer CanvasLayer renamed to MetaLayer; main.gd
@onready refs updated; constants.gd comment updated; test_client_p3
and test_ui_framework_sprint15 assertions updated; test_monologue_display
and .tscn header comments updated.
- OPEN_MENU handler now pushes settings_dialog onto MetaStack before
calling open(). Full ESC priority chain lands in Workstream 4.
- atlas_app.gd: _unhandled_key_input signature widened from
InputEventKey to InputEvent with an is-check, per Godot 4 API. Pre-
existing narrowing was silently tolerated until main.tscn started
fully instantiating under the new pattern.
- test_client_p3: entity_renderer type annotations corrected from
ColorRect to Sprite2D (stale since a prior refactor); facing
indicator rotation assertion switched to angle_difference() for
modular-safe comparison.
Verification:
- gdlint client/scripts/ client/ui/ — zero problems
- godot --headless --path client --quit — no SCRIPT ERROR
- test_client_p3: 24/24 pass
- test_ui_framework_sprint15: 54/54 pass
- test_implant_nav_stack: 52/52 pass
- test_implant_registry: 42/42 pass
- test_implant_app_lifecycle: 36/36 pass
Workstream 1 foundation (84105916) remains unchanged. Workstreams 3-8
follow: protocol layer, Option A sequencing, 3-tab restructure,
Bookmark tab, location picker, Skills stub.

HUD: merge TimeDisplay into ImplantPanel (time/health/perception in one
panel), remove dead tscn nodes, move HUD to InsertOverlay for D-051 bloom.
Interaction prompt: convert from PanelContainer+StyleBoxFlat to Control
with ImplantPanel+ImplantDataRow, fix panel height for 42px minimum.
Tests updated for new scene structure and public API.

TabContainer and its VBoxContainer parent vanish during scene
instantiation when loaded as a child of MainMenu in Godot 4.6.
Moving the entire tab panel construction to _ready() resolves
the issue — the .tscn now only defines the preview side and footer.

Godot 4.6 TabContainer silently destroys children defined in .tscn
during scene instantiation ("Parent path has vanished"). Moving tab
shell creation to _ready() fixes the right-side settings panel.

Sprint 24 Signal — three client tickets delivering the player-facing
storyteller feedback loop:
- #588: Character archetype select screen between New Game and session
start. Two-card UI (Smuggler/Detective), keyboard+mouse, ESC cancels.
GameState.character_archetype persisted and sent in StartupMessage.
PROTOCOL_VERSION bumped to 19.
- #590: Triangle crisis event consumer. Decodes triangle_crisis_events
from snapshot, fires sfx_monologue_chime_urgent once per triangle per
session via AudioManager.CHIME_ACTIVATION.
- #592: News ticker HUD element. Scrolling marquee on UILayer, visible
only when current_ticker is present in snapshot (Last Shift zone).
Zero-arg update_from_state reads from GameState.current_snapshot.

#257: Add Load Game screen to main menu with sorted save list, loading
overlay during quickload round-trip, and pending_load_path cross-scene
flow. F5/F6 quicksave/quickload were already wired.
#561: Move debug_overlay.gd from scripts/ui/ to ui/ for consistency
with all other UI components. Update scene and test references.

Circular 160px diegetic insert overlay on CanvasLayer 10. Nearby
POIs as colored dots (diamond=danger, square=evidence, circle=default),
distant POIs as directional border arrows. Player centered, fixed-north.
Moved from UILayer to InsertOverlay per D-013/D-049.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Time display on InsertOverlay (CanvasLayer 10) shows station local
time (HH:MM), day phase with cycle-tinted color, and day number.
Reads SimulationTime from GameState.game_time via update_from_state().
Adds Constants.format_game_time() helper for testability.
Placeholder layout — position refines when #314 wireframe lands.

Refactors dialogue box into a scrolling conversation log. All dialogue
(player-NPC and overheard NPC-NPC) flows chronologically, oldest at top.
Player response options at the bottom during active conversations.
- Entries expire after configurable timeout (equal for all message types)
- Walk-away clears options but preserves log entries (fair information)
- Per-character name colors from dialogue-theme.yaml (hash-indexed palette)
- Overheard lines render at 90% opacity (D-078)
- Protocol decode for conversation_events + conversation_ended
- GameState fields for conversation_events, conversation_ended, dialogue_response
- Mock Mira/Soren NPC-NPC conversation in test snapshot
- Also wires #511 debug overlay into main.gd and main.tscn

AudioManager: volume slider persistence (ConfigFile), settings UI with
5 teal-bordered sliders, default_bus_layout.tres for editor. Zone
crossfade: defensive zone_id read from snapshot tiles, 1.5-2s ambient
tween, auto-activates when server ships OQ-09. Dip profiles: dialogue
dip in show/hide_dialogue, ListeningFocus 30-tick gate via
stationary_ticks in game_state.gd. NPC murmur: client plumbing for
event-driven World SFX playback, no-ops until audio asset arrives.

#345: entity_renderer.gd already used entity_id; added regression tests
confirming old "id" field is rejected and "entity_id" is accepted.
#447 (OQ-29): DIALOGUE_MAX_WIDTH = 1920 added to constants.gd. Full
viewport width at target resolution (60 × TILE_SIZE), per D-061 Lead
directive "max-width". Recorded as D-076 in decisions/perception.md.
#126: SoundIndicatorRenderer — fog-edge directional arrows for medium-range
sound events (D-018). Node2D at z:951 in World scene. Color-coded per
D-018/D-069 (neutral/voice/danger). GameState.medium_sound_events
partitions Medium events from snapshot sound_events field. Tests added
to test_rendering.gd; Hoshe's test_sound_indicators.gd stubs updated.
#125: Close-range stereo audio pipeline wired. AudioManager.play_sound_event()
maps event_type to D-038 asset key (Footstep/FootstepSprint → sfx_footstep_*).
GameState.close_sound_events partitions Close events. main.gd calls
_play_close_sound_events() each snapshot tick. test_audio_bus_routing.gd
Layer 4 stubs upgraded to real tests.

GauntletHUD in UILayer shows TIMER: MM:SS (PB: MM:SS). Timer starts on
room entry, resets on room change, records personal bests to
user://gauntlet-stats.json. Session summary printed on disconnect.
Hidden in non-gauntlet mode (anti-tedium guard).
Adds room_id and gauntlet_mode fields to GameState, parsed from
ObserverSnapshot. Main.gd wires update_from_state() and finalize().

Fog entity cognitive delay rendering (D-059/D-060): sonar-style sound
pings (3 concentric rings, 1.5s fade), unrecognized grey blobs with
breathing pulse, D-033 color transition at 50% recognition progress,
±0.5 tile position drift. FogEntities node at z:950 between fog
shader and InsertOverlay.
Protocol v7 bump to match server PR #23 (pending_recognitions field).
Wires dialogue box and fog entities into game loop with mock test data.

Server-driven interaction prompt that displays "E - Talk" when near
an interactable NPC. Decodes v4 nearby_interactions from snapshot,
stores in GameState, renders via InteractionPrompt UI with fade
animation. Extensible interface (get_interaction_target/get_selected_verb)
for future radial verb menu (v0.2).
- Protocol: decode nearby_interactions array with nested VerbOption structs,
entity relationship/observation fields, tick_rate in GameTime
- GameState: store/clear nearby_interactions per snapshot
- SimBridge: test mode generates v4 format with structured verbs
- InteractionPrompt: PanelContainer with fade in/out, polls GameState
- Tests: 19 new test cases covering protocol, state, sim bridge, UI, encoding
- Fixture assertions updated for v4 protocol version

Sprint 2 rendering pipeline: tiles (#129), fog (#131), camera (#116).
- tile_renderer.gd: programmatic TileSet with floor/wall/door/object
placeholder tiles, renders from snapshot tile data
- fog_renderer.gd: TileMapLayer overlay with three visibility states
(visible/fog-edge/hidden), computed from visible_positions data
- Camera2D: smoothing enabled (speed 6.0), 2x zoom, locked to player
- game_state.gd: stores visible_tiles and visible_positions from snapshots
- sim_bridge.gd: test data with 8x8 room, corridor, and Manhattan
distance visibility for development without server
- Scene render order: Tiles -> FogOverlay -> Entities
- Background clear color set to near-black for unexplored areas
